    “Is buachaillín mise d'imthig go hóg le fréic”

    4. ón a máthair
    Is buachaillín mise d’imthig go h-óg le fréic
    Ag mealladh mná deasa iseadh chaitheas dhá dtrian dom shaoghal
    Gan eagla an tSagairt an Easboig nó an Pápa féin
    Ach ag ól a’s ag imirt a’s ag clismirt le Báb na gCraobh
    Ní raibh aon bhean deas nár thug taitneamh dom ghnaoi is dom mhéin
    Mar ba mhinic sa tig tábhairne me ag freagairt is ag díol go daor,
    Is ó d’imthig an lasadh bhí an leacainn mar scáil na gcaor,
    Tá mo ghruaig dhubh ag glasadh mar eascaireann barr an fhéir
    Bhíos féin tamall as is mear do thabhairfinn léim
    Nó urchar maith caiste do chaitheamh le lúth mo ghéag
    I bpáirc na speile is blasta do ghearrfainn féar
    Is do threabhfainn le capall is ní cliste ná sínfhinn téip
    Ach anois ó táim caithte is mé im shean duine críodna liath
    Lem’ dhá maide croise is mé ag tarrac mo chos am dhiaidh
    Dá bhfuighinn cúpla gloine mar thaithigheas féin d’fhághailt riamh
    Is go deimhin tar éis a gcaithte go dtabharfainn duit cúrsa fiaidh.
